The Stamp Act
March 22, 1765
I Hope We're All On The Same Page
Hear Ye all colonists -- we have passed a new law . ALL PRINTED MATERIALS WILL NOW BE TAXED! This includes papers, legal documents, licenses, newspapers, other publications, and even playing cards. We don't expect you to be thrilled that this law has passed, but you shall obey it.
---Cordially the British Parliament
